Choosing manual to electric conversion for premises in Hucknall
The work is usually done in a single visit once the parts are ready. Heavier steel curtains may need a larger barrel or a different drive to motorise properly.
A tube motor is fitted into the barrel, replacing the spring on most push-up shutters. The shutter needs a power supply nearby; a fused spur is ideal and a new circuit is quoted separately if needed.
Specification options
- Options for heavy steel curtains
- Tube motor sized to the curtain
- Single-visit fitting in most cases
- Key switch, remote or timer control
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Electrical connection by a qualified electrician
